Notice: Fredric Rice may have removed segments of the replies given to questions if they contained copoyrighted materials. After a very short while, Scientology "experts" refused to answer questions and started cut-and-pasting copyrighted cult propaganda. Additionally I removed URLs in some of the replies, and left them in others. And it's also important to note that eventually the unfortunate "Greg Churilov" cultist was ejected from askme.com for his typical Scientological behavior.

FredricRice asked this reasonable question on 4/27/2000:

Can you give me a rough estimate on the number of people that have been murdered inside of the Ft. Harrison Hotel in Clearwater, Florida, since the Scientology cult bought it? I've got something like six autopsy reports so far yet I'm wondering how complete my archives are.

larrybergen declined to answer, of course, on 4/27/2000.

Greg Churilov gave this bizarrely freakish response on 4/28/2000:

Could you give me a rough estimate on the amount of people you yourself have murdered? Your question is a lie, and seeks to discredit my Church. You should be ashamed of yourself.

FredricRice then added:

Once again you refused to answer the question honestly. Scientology tied Lisa McPherson to her bed and starved her to death over the course of 17 days. Prior to that a young woman was found shot to death on Hubbard's converted cattle boat called the Apollo. There have been numerous mysterious deaths at the Ft. Harrison Hotel that's Scientology's "mecca" which include _two_ incidents of people being scalded to death in their own bathtubs (autopsy photographs are available on the Internet.)

I merely wish to know what the official body count is. That's all. I know it's nothing compared to Hubbard's plan for people 1.1 on the tone scale, but stll I'm merely curious.

How about an honest answer?

[And of course Greg didn't have one - flr]
